Chapter 1360: A Way to Make the Dragon Unable to Fly
According to everyone's convention, when a group of people are spying in the room, a sudden knock on the door must represent a danger signal. In the next second, the door will smash open in a very violent manner, and the raider will rush in with all kinds of weapons whining. Then, the swishing conspiracy scene will quickly evolve into a bloody martial arts scene.
It's a pity that at this moment, Carol was the only one in the room who stood up a little nervously and held the staff next to the chair. Then, he found that the girls present were sitting calmly in place, not even bothering to stand for a moment, and suddenly felt that they were simply fools and cowards.
"It's a race I haven't been exposed to, but it has a strong ability to act stealthily, and is good at masking its own aura and life fluctuations, and it wasn't until it was within ten meters of the room that I was aware of it. This is what you call the Bloodline. It's an interesting life form. Salelier laughed, "I didn't sense her malice, so I didn't stop it." β
Yes, as a combination of positive energy and holy light, the archangel is a creature of order through and through, and she will not lie, nor will she play tricks, but her perception of malice and murderous intent is also infinitely close to 100% accuracy.
"Then it should be Her Highness Selena, right?"
Sehire's judgment was correct, and it was Selena Moonlight, now the queen of the kingdom of Hernas, who opened the door. However, at this moment, she is wearing a black hooded and cape, and the inside is also the same color of soft scale armor, not like a queen, not even a serious sergeant, more like a mercenary adventurer who takes the wanderer's route. Of course, it's not so much that she's a mystic, but rather that she's just that.
Selena greeted the girls she knew, Sesilu, Nicole, and Lim, her eyes lingering on the angel lady leaning against the door for the longest time, and then casually glanced at several other people, such as Carol, Grantbull, and so on. Her eyes were indifferent and unwavering, without any emotion, as if she were looking at a pile of tomatoes and potatoes. However, everyone who was swept by this look had a feeling of being targeted by natural enemies, and they couldn't help but count down their hairs, and even breathing was a little harder. If he hadn't known that the other party was an ally, if he didn't calm down, he might have attacked directly, and he didn't let go of Carol holding the staff?
But who is going to come back, in the old days when they would still be dominated by blood-sucking impulses, the blood clan was not the natural enemy of mankind.
"Huh? You're partying, and that guy isn't there? Selena said.
"The Allies in Auckland are ready to return first. They came here for Lu Xi's face, and he should send it away for both public and private reasons. Sehireu said.
Well, this time Auckland did a very particular job, saying that it did not covet the land north of Mount Hegalos and Orgrimmar, so it would not covet it, and it would go in a chic manner - of course, if the cavalry team of 5,000 people had an additional army of slaves who were driven away like livestock, Lu Xi would almost believe it.
"That's really what you should have done in person. Actually, from my standpoint, I should have been there in person, but I couldn't cope with such a formal occasion, so I let the Duke of Savile and the Duke of Makevian do it for me. "Queen Henas is very willful.
"Listening to your tone, it seems that I have gained a lot." Sehireu was a little curious.
"Yes, the Empire of Auckland has formally agreed to enter into preliminary friendly diplomatic relations with our country, and has approved our embassy in SΓ©loxia. It is said that this was approved by Her Majesty Queen Caterina herself. In addition, after this period of fighting side by side, plus the sorority, several pairs of marriages have really been achieved. Four of the sons of the nobles of Oakland and three of the nobles of Virginia were willing to marry the girls of their own clan. β
Although the blood clan is barely whitewashed because of the endorsement of the big leader (the moon god), it is destined to have a bad image for a long time, and it is indeed not easy for the traditional Oakland nobles and the old-fashioned Virginian nobles to accept the bride of this race. However, when the forest is big, there will be any kind of birds, and there will always be a little variety of your existence, not to mention that these grooms are just the non-eldest sons of some small nobles who have no inheritance rights. It would be naΓ―ve to say that Selena was expecting this to make the nascent small kingdom of Henas an in-law in Virginia and even Auckland.
"Anyway, it's always a good place to start. Although there are still many people who look at us with colored eyes, at least they don't shout and kill, and that's enough. Scold...... If it weren't for that guy, we might have walked for tens or hundreds of years just for this step. Henas had to appreciate it. Maybe it's because Lu Xi is not there, this little lady of meat jokes behaved very calmly, and there was a smile on her cold face that never seemed to thaw.
This is not a polite remark. You know, a few years ago, the Henas bloodline was still a close comrade-in-arms of the undead lords, an important force under the command of the plague king, stained with the blood of the surrounding nations. This time, they were indeed part of the coalition, and with the favor of the moon god, they were inevitably looked at with suspicion, scrutiny, and even hatred. It is not unheard of that the proposal to let the Blood Clan serve as a death squad to prove his innocence and ram the orc defense line of the Mubohair River and even the gate of the Thunder Cliff Fortress has not appeared. However, it is precisely because of Lu Xi's leadership that Selena's friendship activities with Auckland can continue - there is not much hatred between the two - and as long as Auckland, as the hegemon of the mainland, relents, other countries and forces will of course be logical.
"Besides, I've said that, but don't tell that guy. Even if I did, I wouldn't admit it. Selena's addition is really suspicious. Of course, if she didn't have a straight face, but twisted her face to one side with a blush, it must be a textbook-level tsundere.
"Okay, okay, now that Lu Lu is not here, what does Xiao Xia Li want to say, just say it frankly."
"Little ...... Little Charlie. The queen of Henas said that even her heavenly sister didn't call herself that, but in the face of the affinity aura that came with the familiar mortal elf royal descendant, she really couldn't express her dissatisfaction.
ββ¦β¦ Ahem, I'm here to warn that guy to be careful behind his back. Selena coughed fakely, but then her words made everyone nervous: "You know, in recent times, the social activities I organized have more and more participants, even in the high-level court, which is the most unhappy for us, there are already people involved. β
Now that the Thunder Cliff Fortress has been captured, half of the heads of the clan khans have become the trophies of the coalition army's martial arts, and the vast majority of the other half have also knelt down to sing about conquest. Only a handful of particularly violent ones have penetrated into the depths of the wasteland and mountains, and are probably ready to really "never be slaves" to fight guerrilla bars. Whoever will become the ruler of Orgrimmar in the future, who will cut the biggest cake, or even whether the allies will fight for the spoils of war is a matter of the future. For now, at least, everyone is intoxicated, crazy, and rejoicing at this once-in-a-century glorious feat. Therefore, it is logical to have a small banquet in three days and a large banquet in five days.
Language barrier? Bad habits? Is there a feud in the ancestors? Is there even a difference between races? None of the above is a problem. Even the High Court knights who saw the red eyes of the Blood Clan and a constipated face all attended the party held by Henas, not to mention other countries.
And we all know that many of the elite battle mages of the Federation's famous beast families are more bureaucrats than warriors; It's not so much a bureaucrat as an aristocracy. This group of sons and buddies who have spent a lot of time drinking in Elichar have been very disciplined and endurant for more than half a year. Now, the enemy has been pacified, and we are waiting for the domestic reward. As a result, many officers born in the aristocracy seemed to have passed the college entrance examination and were 100% sure that 895 had not run, and the tense emotions and concentration of the whole person suddenly relaxed. And how could they miss out on these fun activities?
"Why, do you also want to marry the wealthy families of the Federation?" Nicole asked curiously.
"The sons and daughters of the wealthy of the Federation seem to be playing better than the military aristocrats of Oakland and Virginia, but that's about it. In a sense, the average federal wealthy family that is only a few hundred years old is actually much more hypocritical than those Auckland nobles whose family lineage is thousands of years. Tsk, it's clear that their family history is even more than my age. β
"The most pretentious, the most pretentious, the most important to pay attention to style, etiquette, these vain things are always nouveau riche, which is completely understandable. Isn't that what a land country looks like? β
"Hey, hey, even if the federal government doesn't do well, there are still several federal civil servants sitting here. Isn't there anything wrong with saying that the Federation is bad for granted? β
"In short, even if we choose to get married, we will choose someone who is responsible enough and respects us enough. The Bloodline needs to fit into mainstream society, but not to climb into it on their knees. Unfortunately, the nobles who came to the banquet from the Federation seemed to lack this. What's more, haven't we already built good relations with the most promising and prestigious figures in the Federation? Even a blind man can see that if he wants to, he will become the most powerful person in the kingdom within ten years. Of course, in order not to make that guy too proud, I haven't said anything above, never been. β
Seyriliu felt that this Majesty was too cute to talk nonsense with a cold face, so he looked at each other's eyes more and more softly, as if maybe it was because of the fact that there was always sympathy between tsunderes, right?
Selena paused and added, "Of course, we don't mind having fun. Whether it's a handsome guy or a pretty girl, it's always too little. It would be too boring if nothing happened after drinking, and everyone took what they needed to draw a very successful end to the party. β
Yes, that's what the so-called banquet for the big guys is all about. Everyone has to drink and chat like the ordinary people, and after drinking, they also have to use the wine to applaud and play mahjong or something. The only difference is that the small people are sincerely enjoying the wine and the "perfect end", and as long as they are big people, they must have paranoia of being killed.
It's really tiring to live, isn't it? However, if you want to wear a crown, you must suffer from it, and this kind of metaphor is already very vulgar, okay?
Just a day ago, at a banquet that had just ended, a pair of "young" dogs (meows) men and women had also finished a hearty bed ah no, playing mahjong.
One of them is the daughter of the famous Menovant family, and the other is the son of the wealthy Boranant family. Women are more than ten times older than men, but they are indeed young in their respective ethnic groups. They are all young people with status, status, family and background, of course, they are not ordinary people, but they are not big people because of their age, and they can enjoy good wine and food very freely, the pride and honor of victory, and a hearty night. Both of them are free and easy to understand, and they are not prepared to take any responsibility for this temporary relationship, just have fun in time. Perhaps because of this, they are happy with each other and are happy with each other.
The son-in-law who was born in the Bolanant family was the combat staff officer of the 13th Legion, whose name seems to be Rasti or something, and he participated in the entire war of Orgrimmar's conquest. In addition, he also has an identity, the special inspector stationed by the military department within the legion, commonly known as the military supervisor. This is a tradition since the founding of the Federation, and it is not surprising. Like the Fourth Legion, no one dares to come to be a prisoner, but it is a special situation. This supervising army and combat staff officer, if you want to say how much ability you have, it is really not easy to count, and it is subtle how much merit he has made in the war, but at least he did not deliberately add to the chaos, and his own work can be regarded as conscientious, and Lu Xi's requirements for these gatekeeper-born sons are nothing more.
But no matter what, this son-in-law should have no less contact with the central government, and the news should be very well-informed.
We all know that men always enter a period of sage time after the desires of the lower body have been fully satisfied. During this time period, their IQ is generally reduced by several orders of magnitude, but the desire to pretend to be X is often 9 times higher than usual...... Uh, in fact, as long as a man is in front of a beautiful girl, he will be like this, right? In addition, by "man" I mean a normal man in the usual sense.
"Hehehe, this is probably the pinnacle of our commander's life. In the future, it will be impossible to make such a feat, and it is time to take this opportunity to celebrate! So, in bed, Major Rasti Bolanante, who was just thirty years old this year and was still in good health, lit his pipe, leaned back on the edge of the bed, and commented on his commander with a breezy expression, as the Fourth and Thirteenth Legions had joined forces at the Mubohair River, and had become the Union Expeditionary Force under the unified command of Lucie, and he did not make any attempt to hide his unpretentious words towards His Excellency. This is probably because the blood girl in her arms showed her admiration for Lu Xi when she was chatting.
"Eh, you mean, Master Berencaster, he'......," the little girl of the Bloodclan said in a languid tone, leaning into the Major's arms, drawing a circle on the other's chest with one finger.
"I didn't mean that."
"And what do you mean~~~~~ that mean?"
"Anyway, that's what you said, eh, hey, hey, hey, that's it. After all, he is the lord of Colorful Rose Island, the heir of that one, and he has such deep connections in the countries and even the Great Holy Temple, and his own strength is so strong. Those old men in our family who look like they are not fools, let alone warriors. Even if the ten major families join together, they won't have much chance of winning, and how can they be so rude? β
"In other words, you were actually planning to be so rough? Is it just because the opponent is too strong to withstand the loss? Giggles, it's okay, it's noble! β
"I didn't say that. He's my respected commander, and he's definitely not an opponent. Hey, hey, it's just that we're spellcasters, not by fists, but here. He nodded his head and smiled wickedly, "Trying to lock the dragon with chains and cages is the stupidest thing to do, and risking your life to fight the dragon is the stupidest of fools." However, the wise man knows how to deprive the dragon of the space to soar, and if it is willing to return to its cave and sleep peacefully, it will be worth it even if it sends it countless treasures! Isn't it? β
"How clever! My master! The girl of the blood clan also showed a charming smile that matched the evil spirit's madness, and continued to draw circles: "But, since it is a dragon, how can it lose the space to flap its wings and soar?" β
"There's always a way, my sweetheart, there's always a way, my baby. As long as he loses his most important political ally on the table, then he also loses the way to influence the big picture. Of course, how to make this dragon honestly accept the status quo is the business of those scheming old men. Oh hehehe...... Uh, why don't you do it again, my little ruby? β
The "young" man and woman, who had eaten the marrow, then rolled together again. For some delicate reasons, Mr. Major, who had handed over his reserves for more than a year in one night, was so majestic that he felt that he had never been so majestic in his life as tonight. Of course, he wouldn't know that the girl from the Novart family, who was very cold to hold and hot when she entered, like a ruby, was actually one of Queen Selena's personal female officials.
